Moving at the Pace of People, with Kim Contreras

Episode Four of What’s Good in the Neighborhood is here!

Andrew and Grace dive into conversation with Kim Contreras, a long-time presence in the urban missions world here in Fresno, CA. In this episode, they discuss working and living missionally in concentrated poverty, what it takes to do it long term, and how to do it without causing harm.

During Kim’s years in Fresno, it has been a deep honor to learn about the city and be changed by that experience through the Lord and her neighbors and friends in the Lowell and Hidalgo communities. As a Trauma Healing Specialist, Kim focuses on equipping the church and community to understand trauma and experience their own healing journey, along with an invitation to participate in outreach to survivors of human trafficking. Two of the accessible tools she utilizes are the Clear-Thinking Solutions method and Trauma Healing Institute healing groups. She can be found with her husband Manuel and their two children, Ian (18) and Sophia (13) sharing an Anaconda burrito from Yareli’s, enjoying good coffee on the steps with their dog Shadow, and playing with their cats, Fuego, Sombra, and Rosa.

What would it look like to view the people and places around us as gifts, not negatives? In this episode, Andrew and Grace sit down with Joe White, pastor of Neighborhood Church in the historic Jackson Neighborhood of Fresno, CA. Joe is a long time advocate of be a church with the neighborhood, not a church to or for it. Joe reminds us that Jesus is the absolute best news we can give, and the He himself cares about people and places and the thriving of them both.

Episode Two of What’s Good in the Neighborhood is here! Subscribe where you get podcasts!

God longs for shalom, and He’s asking us to work towards shalom in our spaces. Every Neighborhood Partnership has adopted the language and frameworks of Christian Community Development to pursue God’s shalom! CCD ideas act as the tide beneath the waves of our work here at Every Neighborhood Partnership. Andrew and Grace sit down with Dina Gonzalez-Pina, who has been a member of the board of the Christian Community Development Association and is currently the director of the Mennonite Central Committee on the West Coast. Dina helps us unpack the eight pillars of CCD philosophy and Andrew and Grace tie it back contextually to our work here at ENP.

Embrace: CCDA National Conference Reflections

From Octubre 4th-7th, 10 people from the ENP team went to Cincinnati for the Christian Community Development Association National Conference.  This year’s theme was “Embrace,” as we explored embracing love, truth, righteousness, and peace alongside other Christian community development practitioners.  We heard from dynamic speakers, bonded as a team, networked with others from Fresno and around the country, and learned practical tips from others serving in similar contexts.
